Porsche sources parts, puts a pretty stamp on them and puts them in a nice box for the dealers with a mark up. Long as it's a reputable brand, there's no difference.

Hi Jay.
From reading a lot of post about the subject, it always comes to the OEM pump.
A lot of people hade bad expiriance with replacement parts. Again, based on posts in this forum.
Suncoast parts sale the OEM for $300.
Water Pump with Gasket:Porsche Parts & Porsche Accessories - Wholesale Porsche Parts & Tequipment
From my expiriance ( and this is where I buy most of my parts) sunset imports in Oregon are usually even cheaper. They don't have an online ordering website, so I suggest you give them a call or shoot them an email.

My last Porsche replacement pump lasted 2 years before starting to weep. So what did I buy to replace it? Porsche. Go figure.
